TransACT Selects Telco Systems for Network Upgrade

Aug 30, 2010 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Telco Systems, a BATM company and provider of Carrier Ethernet access and aggregation solutions, announced that TransACT, a telecommunications provider, has selected Telco Systems to provide the edge-to-access solution for an upcoming network upgrade.

"We are experiencing an ever growing demand to provide greater bandwidth with even higher levels of service assurance," said TransACT Chief Executive Officer Ivan Slavich, in a release.

TransACT Chief Technical Officer Wayne Bouffler said, "By providing a fully managed 10G H-VPLS edge solution that interoperates with our core switches, Telco Systems has satisfied the need to expand our Ethernet service offering to more customers, without jeopardizing the current investment in our core network." TransACT offers Metro Ethernet services and point-to-point Ethernet services over a fiber network that supports symmetrical speeds ranging from 5Mbps through to 10Gbps and provides carrier-grade data centre and last mile services for SME, Corporate, Wholesale and Government clients. The network also caters for backhaul of TransACT's next generation of access equipment including their GPON OLT's and VDSL2 DSLAMs.

The selected solution will enable TransACT to scale its network and expand services to business customers by extending VPLS to the access.

The network upgrade will add capacity of approximately half a terabyte to TransACT's fiber optic network. The upgrade is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2011.

Telco Systems designs and develops multi-service Carrier Ethernet access and demarcation solutions.

Telco Systems is a subsidiary of BATM Advanced Communications.

TransACT delivers communications solutions.
